Bare-Naked (Famous) Ladies

[Barabbas]

Not her, alas. Read the comments. Close resemblance, but not her.

I must admit I had my doubts that a large corporation would have as their spokesperson a woman with that background. But I thought it fit the narrative of poor Russian immigrant trying to break into the entertainment business.

Okay, not very much like you then, but go on...

Nobody told me about this! If someone had shown me anything of this, I would have happily been hooked on silent film. I might never have said another word!!

Sympazero, I saw this picture attributed to Ms. Love, and it’s almost certainly not her.



Not that I mind. Not. One. Bit.

What a beautiful face!
(Yes, I did look at her face. And other parts. . . )

A gif of Susann York at a certain age, at once mesmerizing and disquieting.

I was, indeed, both mesmerized and disquieted.

If only by the dog...

Greta Sacchi in "The Player"?

Somehow I feel that Germaine Greer fits in here.

Good heavens Pier. I was about to call BS on that photo, but . . .

Greer parted company with Suck in 1972 when it published a naked photograph of her lying down with her legs over her shoulders and her face peering between her thighs.[82][83] The photograph had been submitted on the understanding that nude photographs of all the editors would be published in a book about a film festival.[84] She resigned, accusing the other editors of being "counter-revolutionary".[73] Greer said later that her aim in joining the editorial board had been to try to steer Suck away from exploitative, sadistic pornography.[85][86]

Greta Sacchi in "The Player"?

She famously said:
'I avoided nudity unless a film couldnt be told without those scenes. If you look at my films, few of them have that element, yet nudity and male fantasies have become emblematic of my work.'

Well in the after view that statement is somewhat strange, since all stories could be told without nudity. The problem I see is that at one point the movie becomes a book. So many movies would work without nude pictures, but do actresses, or actors work without nude scenes? The most problems, I have with celebrities, wo where there are rumours, most famous naturally Princess Leia, or Mike Obama, and so one. That would be the link to Germaine Greer.

This is my favorite perverse Altman:
Mia Farrow in "A Wedding".

(it's genuine, I have a GIF somewhere.)
